Penny Drive is Going Strong
We only have a 3 days left of our Live Like Lance fundraiser. The students at Hammond have really come together to raise money for the Lance Armstrong Foundation. On Friday, October 1st, we will wear yellow to show our support. This fundraiser has reminded us that cancer and other diseases affects so many people. It is so great that Hammond found a way to help. We are about $100 away from our goal of $500.
Here is an e-mail I received from a parent:
Dear Mrs. Lawyer: My daughter has been collecting pennies from her parents, grandparents and aunts/uncles. Tomorrow I will try and drop off her pennies (they are heavy). There is approximately $22.84 in pennies. She received the bulk of her pennies ($14.80) from her paternal grandparents, both of whom have undergone and survived one type of cancer and currently they are both battling cancer once again, different and separate from the original and none of the four cancers are the same (prostate, eye, breast and liver). By the end of the week we should have pennies from my mother as well.

Museum Activity
On Monday, September 13th, we will be doing an activity that helps us get to know each other. I sent home a yellow half-sheet on Wednesday describing the activity. The students should bring 5-7 items that describe them as a learner. This basically means items that describe the student. There is no one right answer. With each item, the students need to create a tag that describes the item and what it means to them. Below are pictures from the museum activity. The class did an awesome job and it was so great to learn new things about each other.
